NORFOLK, Va. — Dominion Dealer Solutions (DDS), industry leader in equity data mining, automotive marketing, CRM, lead generation, reputation and inventory management, and a division of Dominion Enterprises, today released a new version of its equity mining tool, DealActivator. It is designed to give automotive dealers greater ability to pull in-service customers into the buying market.

This new release offers auto retailers an improved user interface as well as the new Conquest Customer feature that enables dealers to capture customer-specific details on people who did not buy a car at the dealership but are utilizing the service lane. Dealers will now be better able to target unsold customers using Dominion’s equity mining technology. This new release also will benefit current customers of DDS in terms of streamlined process, fewer clicks and more visually appealing, user-centric reporting.

“DealActivator’s Customer Conquest tool continues to enable dealers to target the service lane to mine current and unsold customers,” stated Lyndsey Rodriquez, director of equity mining solutions for Dominion Dealer Solutions. “We are committed to helping dealers connect with unsold customers in their service lane with targeted, cost-effective communications.”

“In addition, the improvements in the user experience allow us to more strongly solidify our solution within the Dominion product family. Now, we join Dominion Inventory and Dominion Adaptive Websites with a common interface, centralized reporting and flexible, at-a-glance custom widgets,” stated Alan Andreu, general manager of equity mining solutions for Dominion Dealer Solutions.

DealActivator provides competitive advantages for local retailers by harvesting current customers from the DMS, creating a new sales initiative in the service drive, and then delivering the best possible prospects by pushing customers into the market early. DealActivator also makes contact with a retailer’s best customers by utilizing automated multichannel messaging that sends pre-qualified buyers directly to the showroom, thus driving significant revenue and ROI.
